::::{{U|AngusWOOF}} I appreciate an attempt to save time for other editors, but I've already finished my "basic" (how I define it in my own mind, I s'pose) sourcing update to the article. I also acknowledge the attempt to provide your reasoning as to why I shouldn't bother, however, I'll be clear: Your interpretation of policy in this area is one I disagree with in part, and as you might recall - one I challenged multiple times in the second Marissa Lenti AfD. From what I recall, one I didn't get much of an explanation for in response - I was a *very* new editor, so it might not've communicated as clearly as I intended... Regardless, I've seen the original Lenti AfD, I agree with the decision then but not a portion of the reasoning. I know your general position in this area and that you've held them for years, and likely agree this is leaning towards delete on lack of notable roles (I haven't analyzed each role in terms of notability - and don't plan to - so I'm not voting) - I'm not here to debate your opinion, I'm here because the main concern of Oppose votes at time of the above comment, was the quality/sourcing of these roles. My goal here wasn't to just jump in and save the article solo, but enable fellow editors to debate its merits on the basis of NACTOR without being hindered by the lack of reliable sourcing. I don't intend to repeat this kind of time drain in the future regardless of the outcome, and focus on my plans to improve the filmography of dozens of EN VA articles this year.

* '''Delete''' hardly any significant roles. Smoker is only recurring for one of the story arcs. Takao in Evangelion is a minor crew character only in the film series.

** While I admit that I haven't seen One Piece or Evangelion, I was operating under the assumption that any character with a redirect was probably significant in their own right. That being said, I have seen Golden Kamuy, where I would hardly say he is "lost among the characters". While he is listed first in the third subheader of the character list, that is because the series generally revolves around three groups of characters. The character in question is the largest character in one of these three groups, and if the list was divided based on protagonist/antagonist lists, he would be one of the top 3 antagonists. Anyway, it also appears they were cast a role in ''[[Akebi's Sailor Uniform]]'', which is listed third on ANN. Admittedly though I haven't seen that series though so I can't speak to its importance.

Exclusively-voice actors don't get much publicity as a rule. Dulcie is not the exception, so WP:GNG is not satisfied. Clarityfiend (talk) 11:19, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Reply to BriefEdits - I speak from experience that it can take hours of work to get one VA article the sources it needs in filmography - and there's so many of them, just within this subcategory of biography articles, that need attention. I don't want to get into habit of jumping into AfDs, and playing wack-a-mole cleanup - but for this one, it shouldn't take too long so I'll give it a shot. Hope it helps - please check back on the article sometime tomorrow (UTC) and let me know if the improvements help. Canadianerk (talk) 18:30, 29 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Canadianerk, I wouldn't spend the hours confirming credits in cast lists when the subject's general notability is in question. You need to find newspaper sources that discuss the subject in significant coverage. A passing mention, even a one-line review of the subject's portrayal will not help the case.

  • Delete hardly any significant roles. Smoker is only recurring for one of the story arcs. Takao in Evangelion is a minor crew character only in the film series. Golden Kamuy he is just lost among the numerous characters. Baki seems to be a main ensemble role, about the only one. No anime conventions that feature him as a major guest of honor. No newspaper articles featuring him. AngusW🐶🐶F (barksniff) 06:03, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
